Ari Justice and Ben Hippeli explore how leaders can use the DISC communication model to elevate their leadership skills.

By understanding these styles, leaders can recognize their own tendencies while adapting their approach to better connect with their team.

You’ll walk away with actionable insights you can use immediately to build stronger relationships, create alignment, and lead with influence.
